Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed by Lori Gottlieb

25 reviews

hannahgunther's review against another edition

Gottlieb crafts a raw, real, and personal narrative that answers the question: what does it mean to be human? However, her frequent use of lewd, vulgar language and often "TMI" anecdotes made me put the book down.

parasolcrafter's review against another edition

emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.0

this book made me experience the full spectrum of human emotion. still sad over some things in it!!! it is a really good book that illustrates how we as humans are so much more than the versions of ourselves that we choose to show and that we all have trauma, we all have good and bad sides, and there are things we all would rather keep hidden.
